    It's tricky getting your bearings in the winding, little streets, but pur host provided us with a simple map which he further annotated for us, and it was a breeze after that! The room ( first floor) was comfy, clean and neat, looking out onto the traditional square containing 🌳 and plants. The rooftop terrace was beautiful, a great setting for breakfast( eggs, fruit, breads, jams, yoghurt, mint tea, coffee, fresh orange juice) and the hosts were genuinely eager to serve/ help. We loved this place, so close to the souks and only about 10 minutes stroll from the main square.

    Lovely little riad in a perfect location, only a 5 min walk from the edge of the souks and 10-15 min walk from Jamaa el fna square yet peaceful and quiet behind the closed riad doors. Many restaurants dotted around close by. I would advise booking directly with the riad, if staying 3+ nights a free taxi is offered to collect you from the airport. Rooms are spotlessly clean, mattress one of the most comfortable of the riads we've stayed in. The riad has 4 rooms, 1 on the ground floor, 2 on the 1st floor and 1 on the terrace, we stayed in the Sirr room, located on the 1st floor. Breakfast made by Sabah is delicious and plentiful. Noureddine ( manager) and Mohamed were always on hand and made the stay much more enjoyable. This is our 4th visit to Marrakech and our 1st to this riad. We would definitely recommend it and stay again. Thank you Noureddine, Mohamed and Sabah

    Tastefully decorated rooms, great location in the middle of the Medina and really nice people. We were given a dedicated map to find the way back, which is not that easy in the maze of the old town. But we didn't need it, as on the first walk we were even accompanied and they showed us the landmarks to use as reference for the way. Overall it was really a pleasant stay.

    Just like many other reviewers here I found Nouredinne and Sarah to be the most amazing hosts! Nouredinne really goes out of his way to help you; like supervising you on your first walk to the central square, preparing breakfast for guests that leave on untimely moments like 06:30 am, and going to the pharmacy and escorting you to the taxi when you happen to be fallen ill. Sarah makes excellent dinners on demand (especially the desserts!) and keeps the room very, very clean and tidy. Apart from the excellent staff, the riad looks wonderful, has a small pool for the hot days, and is very well located in the centre, while maintaining an indoor quietness which is much appreciated after a walk through the soukhs. All in all I'd highly recommend a stay!

    This riad is amazing. Truly a wonderful place to visit. The host Nourredine, is amazing. He will always help you no matter what and goes out of his way to do so. The free breakfast is amazing, and a lot of it. The bedrooms are of a decent size and so are the bathrooms. Everything is very clean and the rooms get cleaned and tidied every day. One thing to note though, there are not any Windows in the rooms, but there is an A/C, it can still get quite hot though.

    Nice little riad inside the Medina closer to most touristic places. Really clean and well preserved by the local inhouse staff. The caretaker Nouredine, is really helpful and goes out of the way to accomodate your needs and the various places recommended where great. A good address within the Medina.

    Noureddine is the best host ever, he's always asking for how was your day, with a sincere smile and giving you suggestions about what to see the following day. Cozy Riad in the middle of the Medina, close to everything but I'd recommend that you arrange your transfer from the airport with them if you are not familiar with the city.

    We spent three nights at the Riad Dar Nour el Houda and we really enjoyed our stay. Definetly the Riad is one of the best places we stayed during our three weeks round-trip. The Riad is like a beautiful oasis in the middle of the Medina of Marrakesh. The hospitality of the hosts was just overwhelming. Sara and Nourreddine were very attentive and made our stay as comfortable as possible. As an example we got a map of the main attractions in Marrakesh with an extra sheet describing the main way in pictures. This was very helpful, as it is a little diffcult to find the destinations in the medina. Also we got very good dinner and sightseeing recommendations. The talks with our hosts were very interesting as they also told us many facts about the marrocian culture and history. Before our arrival at the Riad we were contacted and supported via phone (whatsapp) to find the way to our Riad. The breakfast at the Riad was fantastic as well. All in all, we can strongly recommend the Riad! Wir haben drei Nächte in dem Riad verbracht und waren vollkommen begeistert. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt in der kleinen Oase inmitten der Medina als eine der besten Unterkünfte während unserer dreiwöchigen Rundreise in Erinnerung behalten. Insbesondere die Gastfreundlichkeit unserer Gastgeber Sara und Nourreddine war einzigartig. Neben einer Karte zu den wichtigsten Attraktionen in Marrakesch haben wir eine wegbeschreibung mithilfe von Fotos erhalten. Außerdem wurden uns zahlreiche Restaurants empfohlen, die immer fantastisch waren. Die Unterhaltungen mit unserem Gastgeber haben wir besonders geschätzt, da dieser uns viel über die marrokanische Kultur und Geschichte erzählte. Auch das Frühstück war sehr gut. Für die etwas kompliziertere Anreise zu dem Riad, wurden wir von Nourreddine im Vorfeld via Telefon (WhatsApp) kontaktiert, sodass wir während der Anreise komplett unterstützt wurden. Wir können das Riad nur wärmstens empfehlen!

    We came back just over a week ago and we still can't stop talking about this amazing Riad to anyone who will listen! First and foremost, Noureddine and Asia provide without a doubt the BEST service we have EVER encountered and I do not say this lightly, I genuinely mean that. The Riad literally feels like home away from home. A part of this is the fact there are only 4 rooms which means that unlike hotels - this doesn't feel like you are just a door number. Free breakfast which is amazing - definitely recommend!

    Amazing hosts! Muhammad is so kind and helpful. Great quiet place to stay in the medina

  • 5/5 Giuseppe S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice Riad in the Medina, 10 minutes far from Jemaa El-Fna square. The riad has few rooms, which makes it feel more exclusive and relaxed. The guys of the staff are really helpful and willing to talk to you. The rooms are well decorated and comfortable, and breakfast is pure magic: it changes every day, fresh and very tasty products. We really felt at home in the heart of Marrakech!
